This message fascinates me! I am not aware of a command-line approach to using VLC, though I have not
searched yet for such a thing. I do have JAWS scripts for VLC at https://www.dlee.org/vlc/ which include
documentation, which in turn includes a list of the issues I have found that make me personally dislike VLC
to a degree in its current form. I am currently using it often though.

The command-line, and rather complex, ffmpeg tool should be able to do just about anything you want in the
way of copying parts of a file, converting formats, etc. SoX can do such things with audio but not video.

   Converts from almost all formats.

   I have not played with it in a couple years.

   I’m looking for programs that can either copy content from a DVD, or
   just copy the audio. What’s good, and what’s accessible? Thanks.
